This is a DIGITAL not a physical item.  You receive 5 compressed files to the email address you supply. The compressed files contain 7 high resolution Jpeg pages.  Each Jpeg is 300dpi and measures 8.5 x 11 inches and is ready to instantly print.  The images in this listing are exactly what the pages look like when printed out on an ordinary printer.  (I just use an Epson ecoink printer.)

NO PHYSICAL ITEM IS SHIPPED.  THIS IS A DIGITAL DOWNLOAD YOU USE AGAIN AND AGAIN. I've been an Ebay seller for more than a decade with more than 11,000 sales and no negative feedback, so you can be assured in your purchase.  Please message me with any questions!

To purchase: When you buy I then send you the PDF files via EBay messaging.  

You print them at home and can use them as is, or incorporate them into your own journal pages.

There are also a set of general directions included, but, the main thing to remember is to ink the edges of these after cutting the items out. The photos of the precut pages show you before inking.  The photos with the cut-out items are when I have inked the edges.  It's very inexpensive to get a little black ink pad and then you smudge the edges with black ink using a make-up sponge.  Ink pads last for a long time if you decide to use one on this project.  A slightly different effect can be had if you run a black magic marker along the edge of your cutout pieces to give them a shabby-chic, grungy, vintage look.  I use magic marker for the smaller objects.
